The first poisonous scholar in Daxia, starting from the abdication of the prime minister

Chapter 107: The Treaty under Siege, the Price of Arrogance!

Uh……

The soldier who delivered the message was slightly startled.

What's going on? Shouldn't it be a happy occasion when news of victory from the north reaches the capital? Why is this gentleman calling me nonsense?

Could it be that I'm old and confused?

He said foolishly, "Your Majesty, it is indeed good news. A few days ago, Prime Minister Beili re-entered the envoys' camp and subsequently signed a supplementary agreement. Now our army has taken over Yuzhou!"

When the officials heard this, they were even more stunned.

Not only is it true, but it has taken over?

Wei Xuan stood up with a beaming expression, "Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations, Your Majesty! Now that we have captured Yuzhou, our northern border defenses are secure!"

Regardless of Song Pu's expression or the officials' mood, as Gu Jingzhi's master, Wei Xuan absolutely believed that Gu Jingzhi would not do anything rash.

Since his good student had done such a great thing, as a teacher he naturally had to stand up and support him.

Upon hearing this, Emperor Xia smiled and said, "Come on! Present the victory report!"

"Your Majesty, this matter still needs to be verified. At this time..."

"Mr. Song, don't worry too much. Mr. Gu reported this matter some time ago, and today we have received good news. I think there will be no problem with this matter!" Emperor Xia said lightly.

As soon as these words were spoken, Li Ye, the Duke of Ying, the chief military officer, immediately responded, "Indeed, I also think Prime Minister Song is overly concerned. Lord Gu is quite tactful, and I still have my son leading the army in the north! Could it be that Li Sheng would deceive Your Majesty?"

"..."

Song Pu's face darkened.

He never thought that Li Ye would actually help Gu Jingzhi.

Seeing Song Pu being humiliated, Wei Xuan gave him a mocking look.

Is Duke Li Ye of England helping Gu Jingzhi?

Not entirely.

After all, Li Sheng is leading the troops in the north, and the handover of states and territories is under the charge of Gu Jingzhi, but without Li Sheng's troops, how can the city be handed over?

To doubt Gu Jingzhi at this time is equivalent to doubting the loyalty of Li Sheng and even the Li family!

Wei Xuan shook his head slightly. Song Pu was too impatient. After all, he was the prime minister of a country, but he even forgot the most basic logic in order to deal with a young man!

Emperor Xia sat calmly on the Diaoyutai, his eyes seemingly fixed on the report, but he glanced at Song Pu imperceptibly with the other side, feeling a little amused.

It seems that Gu Jingzhi has made new achievements one after another, and this old fox can't sit still anymore!

But it's also a good thing. After all, Song Pu lost to Gu Jingzhi in this matter. Now the better Gu Jingzhi does it, the more it proves that Song Pu is incompetent.

It's no wonder that the prime minister was furious after being slapped in the face again and again!

"uh-huh!"

After reading the report, Emperor Xia snorted softly, "We recently received a report from the north that General Nangong Shouyi of Beili refused to hand over the cities and prefectures that had been previously agreed upon. The envoy's guards attacked Beili's grain camp at night, cutting off their food supply. This forced Beili back to the negotiation table..."

"What?"

All the civil and military officials in the court were shocked.

"color……"

Li Ye shouted, his face flushed as he said, "A mere 2,000 guardsmen were able to cut off the food supply of Beili's 150,000-man army. They are all excellent men! Your Majesty has a keen eye for talent and knows how to use people wisely. I, an old minister, bow down to you!"

As he spoke, he straightened his official robe and bowed earnestly to Emperor Xia.

Emperor Xia was naturally delighted to hear this. He smiled and said, "This is God's blessing on our Great Xia!"

Seeing Emperor Xia and Li Ye singing the same tune, Song Pu felt annoyed.

Originally, it was thought that Gu Jingzhi was only good at studying and had great strategies, but now he also has certain accomplishments in military affairs. If Emperor Xia can use such a person well, he will definitely be more trusted by Emperor Xia in the future.

By then, it might not be so easy to avenge the past.

It seems that he can't let him continue like this, otherwise it won't be long before Gu Jingzhi becomes a big worry for him!

Song Pu lowered his eyes and thought silently in his heart!

……

Yunzhou City.

Baili Gongshu and Nangong Shouyi looked at the changing royal flags on the city walls with a somewhat dejected expression. Baili Gongshu, in particular, seemed to have not yet recovered from the blow and looked extremely haggard.

This city, which has been occupied by Beili for twenty years, no longer belongs to Beili from now on.

The armies of the two countries lined up on the south and north sides of the city. Compared with the high morale of the Daxia army, the Beili army seemed rather dejected, and they all hung their heads.

After more than half a month of living in fear and skipping meals, it's all over now.

Although they felt like they had survived a disaster, they were not happy at all.

Gu Jingzhi and Li Sheng brought a group of people and came to Baili Gongshu and others. Gu Jingzhi waved his hand and a soldier behind him came over holding a tray.

Inside the tray are the delivery documents!

Nangong Shouyi looked at the delivery document and sneered, "Master Gu is indeed very capable. Today I have witnessed it!"

"I understand General Nangong's feelings, but..."

Gu Jingzhi didn't buy his talk at all. He just said calmly, "What's the point of just talking? I said that day that General Nangong will pay the price for his arrogance!"

Nangong Shouyi gritted his teeth when he heard this.

Before this, he had to hand over the six cities under his control without sending a single soldier.

Now, as a famous general in the world, his lair was raided by a scholar, and all the food and grass were burned. He and his army were living a life of irregular meals, and they had to rely on Daxia for support.

Is there any other general in the world who has ever been so shameful?

"The Japanese will definitely repay the humiliation we suffered today. Then we'll see if Lord Gu has the ability to live up to his promise!"

"I am waiting!"

Gu Jingzhi raised his eyebrows.

Again, what's the point of just talking?

"Humph!"

Nangong Shouyi snorted coldly, then took out his seal and stamped it on a corner of the document.

“Mountains and rivers have brought us together, and I hope to see you again someday!”

Nangong Shouyi said this coldly, looked deeply at Gu Jingzhi and Li Sheng, and then turned and left with Baili Gongshu.

At this point, the handover of the six states was completed.

Li Sheng looked at the towering Yunzhou City, took a deep breath, and then shouted, "Order the army to enter the city!"

"Dong dong dong..."

The heavy sound of war drums rang out. When the Daxia border troops outside the south city gate heard the drums, a general immediately shouted, "The general has ordered the troops to enter the city!"

"Wow..."

The battalion of troops closest to the city gate immediately turned around and marched towards Yunzhou City in orderly steps.

The first to enter the city gate was naturally the dragon flag, symbolizing the supreme authority of Daxia, followed by Li Sheng's general flag...

On the other side, Li Sheng breathed a sigh of relief, then laughed heartily and said, "Master Gu is the imperial envoy, representing His Majesty, so please enter the city first!"

Gu Jingzhi nodded: "In that case, I won't be polite to the general!"

He was the chief envoy of the delegation. Now that the mission was completed, his status immediately changed to an imperial envoy, representing Emperor Xia, so he naturally had to enter the city first.
